ID   1.3.99.21
DE   (R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA dehydrogenase.
CA   (R)-2-benzylsuccinyl-CoA + 2 electron-transferring flavoprotein = (E)-2-
CA   benzylidenesuccinyl-CoA + 2 reduced electron-transferring flavoprotein.
CF   FAD.
CC   -!- The enzyme is highly specific for (R)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA and is
CC       inhibited by (S)-benzylsuccinyl-CoA.
CC   -!- Forms the third step in the anaerobic toluene metabolic pathway in
CC       Thauera aromatica.
CC   -!- Uses the ferricenium ion as the preferred artificial electron
CC       acceptor.
CC   -!- Unlike other acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, this enzyme exhibits high
CC       substrate- and enantiomer specificity.
